Not a fan of their new direction, it's like they've threw everything that made them unique in Act II/III away, and made an attempt to break into the Indie/Alt scene. Absolutely love this band, shame they've scrapped their more imaginative songwriting for this.

They haven't thrown anything away, they're just doing something different for the moment.

Casey spends most of his time trying to make a work cohesive across multiple albums. This is just him writing some stuff he wants to write, so don't necessarily expect it to be quite as spectacular as the Acts of The Color Spectrum.

It's more pop but those choruses he crafts are just so colourful. This sounds amazing and I'm itching to get my copy of the album through. It's time these guys had a go at cracking Europe. New direction is a perfect addition to the theatric explosive style of the acts.
